Nicki Minaj’s new album is Flopping!

Rumor has it that Nicki Minaj’s new album is flopping — hard. Current projections have her selling around 100,000 album equivalents with only 5,000 of those coming from pure sales. If you want to see how that number stacks up with her peers, Cardi B’s Invasion of Privacy sold 254,228 copies in the first week out, with 105,130 of those coming from straight up sales. MediaTakeOut claims the label may try to “buy” some of Nicki’s albums to juice the numbers and save face.
